    <![CDATA[In 2060 New York, some murders still get more attention than others, especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed—and strangled with cords of black velvet. Fortunately, homicide cop Lieutenant Eve Dallas's billionaire husband, Roarke, happens to own the prime real estate where Thomas Anders's sporting-goods firm is headquartered, giving her some help with access. Before long, she's knocking on doors—and barging through them—to look for the answers she needs.<br/><br/>But some things don't add up—and everyone's alibi checks out, from the wife who was off in the tropics to the nephew who stood to inherit millions. Was this a crime of passion—or a carefully planned execution? It's up to Dallas to solve this sensational case in which those who seem to be intimates sometimes guard secrets from each other—and strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways. . . .<br/><br/>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>The new novel in the #1 <em>New York Times</em>-bestselling series.</strong> <br/><br/> Technology may be different in 2060 New York, yet the city is still a place of many cultures and great divides. But as ever, some murders receive more attention than others-especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed-and strangled- with cords of black velvet. <br/><br/> It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation to the public-and of humiliation to his family. But while people in the city are talking about it, those close to Anders aren't so anxious to do the same. With some help from her billionaire husband, Roarke, Eve's soon knocking on doors-or barging through them-to find answers. <br/><br/> But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in the apartment indicates that the killer was someone known to the family, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a crime of passion in a kinky game gone wrong-or a meticulously planned execution? It's up to Dallas to solve a case in which strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways.]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>The new novel in the #1 <em>New York Times</em>-bestselling series.</strong> <br/><br/> Technology may be different in 2060 New York, yet the city is still a place of many cultures and great divides. But as ever, some murders receive more attention than others-especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed-and strangled- with cords of black velvet. <br/><br/> It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation to the public-and of humiliation to his family. But while people in the city are talking about it, those close to Anders aren't so anxious to do the same. With some help from her billionaire husband, Roarke, Eve's soon knocking on doors-or barging through them-to find answers. <br/><br/> But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in the apartment indicates that the killer was someone known to the family, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a crime of passion in a kinky game gone wrong-or a meticulously planned execution? It's up to Dallas to solve a case in which strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways.]]>

And as ever, some murders receive more attention than others - especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed - and strangled - with cords of black velvet.<br/><br/>It doesnt surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anderss scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation for the public - and humiliation for his family. While everyone else in the city is talking about it, those close to Anders arent so anxious to do so. Fortunately, because Dallass billionaire husband, Roarke, happens to own the prime real estate where Anderss sporting-goods firm was headquartered, she has some help with access. Before long, shes knocking on doors - or barging through them - to look for the answers she needs.<br/><br/>But the facts dont add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didnt struggle. The security breach in the highly fortified apartment indicates that the killer was someone close to Anders, but everyones alibi checks out, from the wife who was off in the tropics to the loving nephew who stands to inherit millions. Was this a crime of passion - or a carefully planned execution? <br/><br/>Its up to Dallas to solve a sensational case where all involved guard secrets from one another - and strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways.<br/><br/>Nora Roberts is cool. - Stephen King]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Reading an In Death book is like lying in bed on a rainy afternoon, cuddled up with a cat or two, munching on chocolates... and reading a good book. I don't do mysteries as a rule, but because I love the background and characters so much, these mysteries are fun. As usual, I adore Eve and Roarke, an...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38892659">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[<strong>The new novel in the #1 <em>New York Times</em>-bestselling series.</strong> <br/><br/> Technology may be different in 2060 New York, yet the city is still a place of many cultures and great divides. But as ever, some murders receive more attention than others-especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed-and strangled- with cords of black velvet. <br/><br/> It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation to the public-and of humiliation to his family. But while people in the city are talking about it, those close to Anders aren't so anxious to do the same. With some help from her billionaire husband, Roarke, Eve's soon knocking on doors-or barging through them-to find answers. <br/><br/> But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in the apartment indicates that the killer was someone known to the family, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a crime of passion in a kinky game gone wrong-or a meticulously planned execution? It's up to Dallas to solve a case in which strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I think what I like about this sedries is Lt Eve Dallas says what we all are thinking and you get the feeling you are right beside her every step of the way. She is not afraid of getting banged up along the way or kicking ass.  It is rare that after the number of cases Eve has solved to find a way t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/68410138">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is the 26th book in the series and the first I've read. It was fantastic and I will certainly be reading the rest. I normally start at the beginning of a series, but with this one it doesn't matter. Ms Robb's writing is such that the characters just flow, their complexities seem normal.
